What’s in your toolkit? How does your equipment impact patient care and the long-term health of longevity of your career? The implementation of quality dental equipment extends beyond basic patient care. No longer are ultrasonics intended only for calculus removal, the importance of biofilm disruption and reduction of inflammation are key in disease treatment and prevention. Choosing the correct equipment, ultrasonic tip and ideal adaption is important to improved oral health outcomes and patient comfort.

Dental professionals need to consider the efficacy of the of small equipment and the ergonomic impacts and benefits it provides. Handpieces are used and adapted at different angles in nearly every preventative care appointment, choosing a handpiece for patient comfort and provider ergonomics helps reduce the risk of musculoskeletal disorders compared to handpieces of the past.

During this CE webinar, we will
• Review ultrasonic scalers and the key features that make a difference in patient outcomes
• Discuss the types of ultrasonic inserts, indications and adaption for each
• Review the features of a hygiene handpiece to be considered
• Identify the risk factors that increase incidence of musculoskeletal disorders and repetitive injury for dental workers   ( disclaimer, bio and commercial disclosure )
